It is a cesspool of a perfect storm out there right now. Easily the worst it has been in 40 years. If RU/CN/IR deiced to kick off and change the world dynamic, this is when they would do it. Not a tinfoil hat kind of guy but people have been actively jockeying for these positions for a decade and here we now are.

Well, several of them have suspect welds in their reactor system and are stuck to the pier. The ones that are coming online are not replacing the boats being decommed on a 1 to 1 basis - though they have as many or missions to day than 2 decades ago. China is building sub and surface ships at a far higher rate than we are and our small ships coming off the line (LCS) suck badly.

And in a few years the bill cones due for the Boomers
